Probably John XXIII (Woot! Let's hear it for the Second Ecumenical Council of the Vatican! woot!)

Least favorite? Alexander VI, member of the corrupt Borgia clan, father of the infamous Lucrezia Borgia, and all around perv. Thanks a lot, Alex, for giving people for centuries to come reasons to despise Catholicism. Sure, you were a product of the time, but even for the fifteenth century you sucked.

I am most familiar with Karol Wojtyla, so I would have to say him.

John Paul II
He was more like a grampa than a pope.
He had that cool charm to him.

Oh, without any doubt Saint John XII. He set the modern standard for all Popes. His saintliness has been imitated but most of them, but never matched.

So far in my life and the popes before, I would say the current pope is very good and will probably be my favorite until another comes along that I like more which I doubt. Benedict 16 makes decisions faster and moves the Church more decisively with a strong hand and a clear vision.
